Ingredients
- 1 lb. boneless chicken or beef, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup of yellow lentils
- 1 cup of whole wheat or barley grains
- 1 cup of basmati rice
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2-3 green chilies, chopped
- 1 tablespoon of ginger paste
- 1 tablespoon of coriander powder
- 1 tablespoon of cumin powder
- 1 tablespoon of red chili powder
- 1 tablespoon of garam masala
- Salt, to taste
- 1 cup of cooking oil
- 1 cup of crispy fried onions
- 1 cup of boiled noodles
- Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- Lemon wedges
Instructions:
- Rinse the lentils and barley/wheat grains, and soak them in water for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- In a large pot, add the soaked lentils and grains, along with 4-5 cups of water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 1-2 hours or until the grains are tender and fully cooked.
- Once the grains are cooked, use an immersion blender or a food processor to puree them until they form a smooth, thick paste. Set aside.
- In a separate pot or pressure cooker, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and fry until they turn golden brown.
- Add the minced garlic, chopped green chilies, and ginger paste to the pot, and fry for a few more minutes.
- Add the chopped chicken or beef to the pot, along with all the spices – coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until the meat is tender and cooked through.
- Add the pureed lentil and barley/wheat mixture to the pot, and mix well with the meat and spices. If the mixture is too thick, add some water to thin it out to your desired consistency.
- Simmer the mixture over low heat for another 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- To serve, ladle the haleem khowsuey into individual bowls. Top each bowl with a handful of crispy fried onions, boiled noodles, and some chopped fresh coriander leaves.
- Squeeze some lemon juice over the top, if desired, and serve hot with additional condiments like yogurt, mint chutney, or tamarind sauce.
- And there you have it – a delicious and hearty haleem khowsuey dish that you can make at home! This recipe is great for feeding a crowd, and can easily be adjusted to suit your personal taste preferences. Enjoy!
